I have Centos 7.3 with ansible version 2.3.
Ansible 2.3.0.0
config file = ../ansible.cfg
configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
python version = 2.7.5 (default, Nov 6 2016, 00:28:07) [GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-11)]
I need to run ansible playbooks in Azure VM's.
I get the following error when I run
fatal: [52.170.201.24]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "module_stderr": "Shared connection to 52.170.201.24 closed.\r\n",

UPDATE:
52.170.201.24 is the IP Address of the Azure Virtual machine which is part of the inventory hosts.
I'm actually trying to power on an Azure Virtual machine with this ansible code in my ansible control machine
- name: Power On Docker repo if Azure
azure_rm_virtualmachine:
resource_group: HpsaPoc
name: DockerRepo
started: yes
when: "{{cloud_provider}}" == 'azure'
I can't wrap my head around this python/pip configurations, I had tried installing python 3.5 and pip3 but didn't help, so deleted it as I didn't know how to uninstall it. Please help.
